Understanding –Decision-making – Action
In responsible medical practice, it is now more than ever before a constant challenge to arrive at the right decisions together with the patient in each individual case.
From the contemporary practice perspective, dogmatically rigid treatment concepts and fixed routine practice procedures cannot satisfy these demands. Therefore, apart from merely giving participants the technical skills needed to perform the necessary medical interventions and surgical procedures, modern continuing medical education and training programs must also ensure that participants have the solid knowledge base needed for sound decision-making in each individual patient’s case.

MC 1: Manual Skills
Summary
High-power magnification using operating microscopes is not routinely used for surgical interventions in the oral cavity today - the dimensions of the microsurgical instruments and suturing materials that have proven to be particularly suitable in periodontal and implant surgery, do normally not require more than 4.5 x to 6.0 x magnification in most of the situations. Therefore, standard loupe systems provide sufficient magnification in the vast majority of cases.
Against this background, the question is: why would you take a three-day course devoted exclusively to working under the microscope with magnifying powers as high as 20 x?
The answer is simple: there is no longer any doubt in the field, that successful surgical outcomes are largely dependent on the manual dexterity of the individual surgeon. Based on current literature though, manual skills can only be improved by moving out of the comfort zone and by going to the border area of what the human hand can perform.
Regardless of your current level, this course will consequently push you to your limits, thereby providing exactly the right impetus you need to effectively and sustainably train and enhance your manual skills. During these three days of training, you will build the foundation needed to successfully complete all of the remaining Hürzeler/Zuhr Master Classes.

MC 2: Periodontitis I
Summary
Periodontal surgery to successfully treat patients affected by periodontal diseases is unambiguously in the center of the Master Classes 2 and 3.
At the same time, the course programs have been compiled in a thorough understanding that surgical interventions are only a small piece of the jigsaw puzzle for the successful management of patients with periodontal disease. In other words, even if executed using best practices and techniques, periodontal surgery procedures will not have a significant impact if they are not embedded in a practice environment that ensures that all the necessary phases of systematic periodontal treatment can be carried out in a competent manner.
All in all, this class does not dispense with the need to study the theoretical fundamentals of periodontology. However, the first part of this course module will teach you the most important and clinically relevant theoretical aspects of establishing the structured approach needed for the systematic management of periodontal disease patients in private practice. Moreover, you will learn strategies for systematic treatment planning and indications for various periodontal surgical interventions required to achieve defined treatment goals according to established treatment concepts based on case studies in interactive work group discussions.
Most important, you will focus during these three days on learning the microsurgical flap techniques needed, to perform access and regenerative periodontal surgery procedures for the treatment of infra-alveolar and inter-radicular periodontal defects. Intensive hands-on training with various training models and live surgeries will help you become skilled at planning and executing incision design, flap elevation, flap mobilization and flap stabilization techniques with a defect-specific approach. The skills learned in this course will give you the foundation needed to manage patients with periodontal diseases even more successful in the future.

MC 3: Periodontitis II
Available dates:
28. - 30. Nov 2024
Summary
Master Class 3 is structured as the continuation of Master Class 2.
The first part focuses on resective periodontal procedures to successfully treat patients affected by periodontal diseases in supplementation to access and regenerative surgical interventions covered in Master Class 2. In contrast to often voiced concerns considering resective periodontal surgery old-fashioned and “aggressive”, it will be demonstrated that the application of apically repositioned flaps can still make sense within the scope of modern periodontal therapy in areas without esthetic relevance provided that periodontal regeneration or access flap surgery cannot be predictably applied. Decisive is, that if indicated and put in a modern and future-oriented context, pocket elimination can even today and not least under the heading of “fiber-retention” be performed in a minimal-invasive and tissue-conserving way. Is there still room for resective periodontal procedures to successfully manage patients with periodontal diseases today? The clear answer is: Yes, there is!
The far-reaching understanding that gingivitis acts as the precursor of periodontitis and therefore the treatment of gingivitis represents the most important step to prevent periodontitis, shapes the second section of Master Class 3. In the center of attention are hereby – theoretically and practically – minimal-invasive apically repositioned flaps to eliminate subgingival restorations margins and the application of soft tissue autografts harvested at the human hard palate in situations where it is in areas without esthetic relevance necessary to re-establish healthy and stable gingival conditions.
The agenda of the last part follows the profound understanding that patients with a history of periodontitis have also an increased risk of developing peri-implant diseases. Based on a mindset that the development of peri-implantitis and consequently the loss of implants can be optimally avoided by maintaining teeth as long as possible and postponing implant placement as far as possible in the course of patients` lives, the preservation of teeth, even severely compromised, can be important, in particular for young- and middle-aged patients. By sharing fundamental background knowledge and meticulous hands-on training, surgical techniques at the limits of tooth preservation are highlighted on this day. These include regenerative periodontal procedures as well as resective interventions like tunneling procedures, root amputations, root separations and root resections culminating in the successful treatment of alleged hopeless teeth. Furthermore, surgical techniques to maintain teeth affected by external root resorptions will be a subject of discussion.

MC 4: Peri-implantitis
Available dates:
30. Jan - 01. Feb 2025
Summary
The use of dental implants to replace missing teeth represents a significant improvement in the quality of life for many patients affected by tooth loss today. Scientifically documented survival rates of nearly 90% over an observation period of 15 years, coupled with the exponentially increasing number of implants inserted worldwide each year, speak for themselves. However, the long-standing conviction ingrained in the minds of clinicians that osseointegrated implants function flawlessly for a lifetime has recently yielded to the bitter realization that titanium artificial tooth roots do not always represent a "permanent solution" and can often entail technical and, most importantly, biological long-term complications. It must be acknowledged that more than 20% of implant patients are affected by peri-implantitis after 10 years, characterized by peri-implant bone loss of more than 2 mm. These patients not only face the risk of losing their implants in the long term but may also have to undergo revision treatments involving significant surgical complexity and morbidity. Given these statistics, from a scientific standpoint, there is much to suggest that developing a profound understanding of the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of peri-implant diseases represents one of the foremost challenges in implant dentistry today.
Against this background, the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of peri-implant diseases are the central themes of this three-day course. Based on the guiding principle of biologically driven implant placement, we will in-depth discuss clinical issues which, from today's perspective, must be taken into account in dental implant planning and treatment for optimal prevention of peri-implant diseases in the future. Furthermore, a systematic approach to the non-surgical and surgical treatment of peri-implantitis will be imparted. Regarding “prevention of peri-implantitis”, participants will focus on learning surgical techniques for establishing sufficiently thick, attached and wide keratinized peri-implant mucosa in a wide range of clinical situations. Regarding “treatment of peri-implantitis” regenerative as well as resective techniques will be taught in well-supervised hands-on training exercises and live surgeries.

MC 5: Soft Tissue Reconstruction I
Summary
The regeneration of soft tissue defects in areas of esthetic relevance is highly challenging for any clinician. In addition to complete defect reconstruction, good esthetic outcomes in terms of color, texture and surface characteristics with absence of scarring and harmonious tissue transitions are important criteria of success.
Master Class 5 represents the first of two Master Classes dedicated to oral soft tissue reconstructions and focuses on gingival recessions exclusively. Therefore, theoretical and practical aspects of gingival recession management comprise the main course contents. During these three days of training, course participants will further develop surgical skills learned in the previous modules to be applied in plastic-esthetic periodontal surgery. It will be demonstrated that the clinical experience in gingival recession therapy dates back several decades and is substantiated by an excellent base of scientific evidence. That is why the lessons learned in Master Class 5 will build a solid basis for performing more sophisticated techniques of oral soft tissue reconstructions as presented later in Master Class 7.

MC 6: Hard Tissue Reconstruction
Available dates:
Summary
Dental implant treatments can reach the limits of what is feasible in cases where tooth loss is associated with large-volume hard tissue defects, especially vertical defects. It is important to mention, that except for sinus floor elevation, most procedures for the surgical reconstruction of such defects have a relatively weak base of scientific evidence substantiating their predictability and long-term stability. For this reason, the decision-making process for one surgical technique over the other in these situations is crucial, also knowing that the associated morbidity for the affected patients can be substantial.
The structure of Master Class 6 has been composed against the background that available techniques for horizontal and in particular vertical bone augmentations are unanimously difficult to perform and very technique sensitive – proper execution requires a profound biological understanding and a high level of manual dexterity on the part of the surgeon. In this course module, we will therefore review the currently available literature together with the participants in order to identify procedures that satisfy today's requirements for successful bone reconstruction. In doing so, we will realistically define what each available procedure can actually be expected to achieve in specific indications as well as their weaknesses and limitations. During these three days of intensive and systematic training, you will focus on practicing these techniques on various training models. Live surgeries are also included to enable you to successfully carry out these procedures on your own patients directly after course completion.

MC 7: Soft Tissue Reconstruction II
Available dates:
Summary
Master Class 7 represents the consequent continuation of Master Class 5, based on the understanding that the same mucosal grafts and coronally advanced flaps, which have proven to be highly successful in treating gingival recessions, can also be effectively modified for the reconstruction of other soft tissue defects in the oral cavity.
Thus, this module is dedicated to the reconstruction of more pronounced intraoral soft tissue defects such as peri-implant mucosal recessions, soft tissue ridge augmentation related to implants and pontics, or papillary defects, focusing particularly on the necessary connective tissue grafts and utilized flaps. Building upon Master Class 3, comprehensive clinical concepts for the predictable execution of aesthetic crown lengthening are further developed.
Characteristic of the defect types addressed in Master Class 7 is that successful treatment outcomes are often only achievable through interdisciplinary collaboration. In particular, the interface between soft tissue surgery and restorative measures is therefore frequently the focal point of interest.

MC 8: Immediate Implants
Available dates:
26. - 28. Jun 2025
Summary
The ability to predictably and durably anchor dental prostheses on dental implants represents a significant improvement in quality of life for many patients affected by tooth loss today. Immediate implants to reduce the morbidity associated with implant treatments are increasingly at the forefront of interest, as their application minimizes the number of surgical interventions, shortens treatment times, and reduces pain as well as postoperative trauma to a minimum. Regardless, under certain conditions, immediate implants hold the promise of aesthetic treatment success, especially in the case of replacing multiple adjacent teeth, which has not been predictably achievable with traditional implant treatment concepts.
Against this backdrop, Master Class 8 primarily addresses innovative approaches that go beyond established therapeutic concepts associated with immediate implantation. These include immediate implant placement with tooth-supported implant bed preparation for the replacement of multi-rooted teeth, reconstructions of missing buccal bone walls performed simultaneously with flapless immediate implantation, and immediate implantation performed while leaving parts of the tooth root in the extraction socket. Hereby, in-depth instruction in the essential scientific background required to make the right decisions in the individual case for the benefit of your patients is provided. Well-supervised hands-on training and carefully selected live surgeries will help you to effectively practice and internalize the essential clinical steps involved in immediate implant placement according to the current rules of practice. In doing so, the interplay between immediate implantation and a digital workflow plays a particular important role.
Contents
- Biology and healing of extraction sockets
- Digital workflows
- Alveolar ridge preservation techniques

In addition to complete defect reconstruction, good esthetic outcomes in terms of color, texture and surface characteristics with absence of scarring and harmonious tissue transitions are important criteria of success.
Master Class 5 represents the first of two Master Classes dedicated to oral soft tissue reconstructions and focuses on gingival recessions exclusively. Therefore, theoretical and practical aspects of gingival recession management comprise the main course contents. During these three days of training, course participants will further develop surgical skills learned in the previous modules to be applied in plastic-esthetic periodontal surgery. It will be demonstrated that the clinical experience in gingival recession therapy dates back several decades and is substantiated by an excellent base of scientific evidence. That is why the lessons learned in Master Class 5 will build a solid basis for performing more sophisticated techniques of oral soft tissue reconstructions as presented later in Master Class 7.

MC 6: Hard Tissue Reconstruction
Summary
Dental implant treatments can reach the limits of what is feasible in cases where tooth loss is associated with large-volume hard tissue defects, especially vertical defects. It is important to mention, that except for sinus floor elevation, most procedures for the surgical reconstruction of such defects have a relatively weak base of scientific evidence substantiating their predictability and long-term stability. For this reason, the decision-making process for one surgical technique over the other in these situations is crucial, also knowing that the associated morbidity for the affected patients can be substantial.
The structure of Master Class 6 has been composed against the background that available techniques for horizontal and in particular vertical bone augmentations are unanimously difficult to perform and very technique sensitive – proper execution requires a profound biological understanding and a high level of manual dexterity on the part of the surgeon. In this course module, we will therefore review the currently available literature together with the participants in order to identify procedures that satisfy today's requirements for successful bone reconstruction. In doing so, we will realistically define what each available procedure can actually be expected to achieve in specific indications as well as their weaknesses and limitations. During these three days of intensive and systematic training, you will focus on practicing these techniques on various training models. Live surgeries are also included to enable you to successfully carry out these procedures on your own patients directly after course completion.

Master Week 4 (MC 7+8)
Available dates:
30. Jun - 04. Jul 2025
MC 7: Soft Tissue Reconstruction II
Summary
Master Class 7 represents the consequent continuation of Master Class 5, based on the understanding that the same mucosal grafts and coronally advanced flaps, which have proven to be highly successful in treating gingival recessions, can also be effectively modified for the reconstruction of other soft tissue defects in the oral cavity.
Thus, this module is dedicated to the reconstruction of more pronounced intraoral soft tissue defects such as peri-implant mucosal recessions, soft tissue ridge augmentation related to implants and pontics, or papillary defects, focusing particularly on the necessary connective tissue grafts and utilized flaps. Building upon Master Class 3, comprehensive clinical concepts for the predictable execution of aesthetic crown lengthening are further developed.
Characteristic of the defect types addressed in Master Class 7 is that successful treatment outcomes are often only achievable through interdisciplinary collaboration. In particular, the interface between soft tissue surgery and restorative measures is therefore frequently the focal point of interest.

MC 8: Immediate Implants
Summary
The ability to predictably and durably anchor dental prostheses on dental implants represents a significant improvement in quality of life for many patients affected by tooth loss today. Immediate implants to reduce the morbidity associated with implant treatments are increasingly at the forefront of interest, as their application minimizes the number of surgical interventions, shortens treatment times, and reduces pain as well as postoperative trauma to a minimum. Regardless, under certain conditions, immediate implants hold the promise of aesthetic treatment success, especially in the case of replacing multiple adjacent teeth, which has not been predictably achievable with traditional implant treatment concepts.
Against this backdrop, Master Class 8 primarily addresses innovative approaches that go beyond established therapeutic concepts associated with immediate implantation. These include immediate implant placement with tooth-supported implant bed preparation for the replacement of multi-rooted teeth, reconstructions of missing buccal bone walls performed simultaneously with flapless immediate implantation, and immediate implantation performed while leaving parts of the tooth root in the extraction socket. Hereby, in-depth instruction in the essential scientific background required to make the right decisions in the individual case for the benefit of your patients is provided. Well-supervised hands-on training and carefully selected live surgeries will help you to effectively practice and internalize the essential clinical steps involved in immediate implant placement according to the current rules of practice. In doing so, the interplay between immediate implantation and a digital workflow plays a particular important role.

Special 1: Dental Hygiene Conceptions at the Interface of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry
Available dates:
This course is designed to serve as an adjunctive program for Dental Hygienists working with Dentists that have taken the Hürzeler/Zuhr Academy course program. Its about opening up communication and focus on the team work approach of periodontal and implant therapies and calibrating the team with the patient in focus. This will help each practice team to develop treatment protocols in its own practice.
Anti-infective therapy is still the gold standard of nonsurgical treatment, we will be looking at what are our options. With practical and live demonstrations in introducing some of the newer instruments at our finger tips. Giving the participants the possibility of using specialized instruments for root planning and adaption into furcation areas. Air-abrasion powder will part of our focus in both SPT and Implant therapies. Giving participants time to practice and increase skill level, and watch our Hygienists use this treatment option in live demonstrations that will be interactive.
We as Dental Hygienist need to motivate our patients not only to follow through on treatment but also optimizing home care. Motivational Interviewing is a necessary skill to keep communication open not only with the patient but within the Team. We will be offering a small introduction into Motivational Interviewing with a team approach to home care protocols for your patients.
This program will take all we learned in school and our life experience and tie it all together with the evidence and experience of our Team. Communication between Dentist and Hygienist is important for establishing a protocol so the whole team is onboard. Hopefully the participants will become a stronger voice in patient management.
Please bring Loupes if you have them with you for the Hands-on exercises.
Subjects:
- calibrating the team, communication and establishing protocols
- anti-infective therapy and optionswith specialized instruments
- air abrasion powders
- supportive periodontal therapy, deciding intervals

Special 2: Immediate Implant Placement with Partial Root Retention
Available dates:
17. - 18. Oct 2024
It appears to be fundamental, that over the past two decades a clear paradigm shift within health care towards patient-centered care could be noticed. Based on this premise, immediate implant placement with shorter treatment time, less treatment effort and fewer surgical interventions has gained increasing attention in the recent past. While the survival rates of immediately placed implants seem to be similar to implants inserted delayed or late, esthetic failures with midfacial and interproximal loss of soft tissue volume seem to be a common finding. To decrease the extent of soft tissue deficiencies in post-extraction sites, a variety of clinical recommendations as well as alveolar ridge preservation techniques have been described and investigated in the literature showing a significant reduction in vertical and horizontal defect formation following tooth extraction compared to unassisted socket healing. However, systematic literature reviews come invariably to the conclusion, that post-extraction resorption of the alveolar ridge might be limited, but cannot be completely avoided.
If therefore the target was, that in the future more implant patients can benefit from immediate implant placement, preventing loss of periodontal ligament and bundle bone after tooth removal would be key. In this connection “Root Retention” has currently attracted a renewed and increasing interest as “Root Submergence Technique” for pontic site development and as “Socket Shield Technique” for immediate implant placement. The underlying idea can be simply described as follows: if the root with its periodontal attachment apparatus is retained in the socket, the bundle bone can be preserved and consequently defect formation avoided. Under these circumstances predictable esthetic outcomes may be expected without any additional augmentation procedures and independent of the presence or dimension of the buccal bone plate. In addition to it, previously unattainable esthetic results may be derived in complex situations, in particular if more than one tooth next to each other needs to be replaced.
This two-day seminar provides in-depth instruction in the essential scientific background information to make the right decisions in the individual case for or against partial root retention. Well-supervised hands-on training and carefully selected live surgeries will help you to effectively practice and internalize the essential clinical steps involved in socket-shield interventions according to the currently developed rules of practice.
Subjects:
- biology and healing of extraction sockets
- alveolar ridge preservation techniques
- immediate implant placement
- partial root retention – indications and case selection
- the socket-shield technique – clinical course of action
- complication management
Practical Trainings:
- decoronation, root preparation and partial extraction socket management
- computer-guided immediate implant placement with partial root retention
- immediate provisionalization
Live Surgeries:
- immediate implant placement with partial root retention and immediate provisionalization
Special 3: Hürzeler/Zuhr Alumni Meeting
Dear friends of the Hürzeler/Zuhr Academy,
It is our great pleasure to announce the 2nd Hürzeler/Zuhr Academy Alumni Convention taking place in Spitzingsee from July 2nd to 4th 2020.
As you are used to, we will meet on Thursday at 2.00 pm in our premises at Rosenkavalierplatz 18 in Munich and will be back there on Saturday at 4.00 pm the latest.
Like last time, the meeting itself is not intended as a congress with a fixed sequence of theoretical lectures or practical hands on trainings. It's instead much more supposed to act as a tri-annual institutional event to network and exchange expertise among highly qualified professionals at eye level.
The three days will be shaped by interactive discussions under the heading of the overall topic „The Digital World of Dentistry - Interdisciplinary Approaches to Improve and Simplify Complex Treatment Processes“.
We are very proud that we were able to enlist Prof. Daniel Edelhoff, Head of the Prosthetic Department of the University of Munich and Prof. Björn Ludwig, orthodontist in private practice from Traben-Trarbach for the meeting. Both of them are proven and internationally accepted experts in the field of digital technologies and will be at their disposal with all their knowledge and all their experience over the complete timeframe.
Moreover, Marc and myself are planning to give you a short update of the latest scientific achievements and clinical innovations that influenced and changed our way to approach patients in the recent past. Some of you will be asked to present interesting patient cases for in-depth group discussions.
Last but not least there will be enough time for social activities, face to face conversation and in particular a lot of fun in a beautiful, inspiring and quiet environment in the heart of Bavaria.
It's all set - we are looking forward to seeing you again soon!

Lets´Keep in Touch!
The first Hürzeler/Zuhr Academy Alumni Meeting was held in the summer of 2016 by popular demand of many colleagues who graduated from our master classes.
This marked the launch of a series of meetings to be held once every three years. The idea is to give our alumni classes from different years the opportunity to network with others and exchange news and information about innovative trends and developments in the field of dentistry. We will hold regular three-day alumni meetings in the seclusion of an alpine resort in Spitzingsee, in the heart of Upper Bavaria. Technically, this is neither a scientific congress nor a practical training course. Instead, our alumni meetings are designed as an institution-based platform to facilitate the eye-level exchange of ideas on current topics among highly qualified colleagues. We also aim to provide updates for specialists on new trends and developments in patient management at these events.
Last but not least, alumni meetings provide the perfect setting to cultivate international relations, build networks and, above all, to meet up with good friends again!
The next Hürzeler/Zuhr Alumni Meeting will be from 29. – 01. October 2022. Further information will be provided in the near future.
